Rock Climbing Class

Signed the kids up for a month Rock Climbing class and they were both very excited about it!
Real rock climbing shoes and everything.

And what is the very first thing they did?

Walk across a beam about 18 feet high!
I thought one of them if not both would contemplate the first step at least a little bit but noooo. Once the rope was attached they just started walking. Cole actually did a slide step all the way his first trip but the next two he walked with more confidence. Jo walked like it was only a foot off the ground and was across the beam as fast as her regular walking.
Both were smiling LARGE when they got to the other side.


Climbing to the top!


Jo would climb about half way and then let go to swing down.
Cole found it fun to climb to the top to touch the ceiling and then swing down.








Rock Cave
Both kids had fun trying to climb upside down inside the cave.
They came home quite tired after two hours of climbing. Jo showed us her hands as they looked rough and sore from all the work.

They are already looking forward to next weeks class.
